Class BufferedSynapse

java.lang.Object

org.joone.engine.Synapse

org.joone.engine.BufferedSynapse

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, InputPatternListener, Learnable, LearnableSynapse, NeuralElement, OutputPatternListener, Inspectable

public class BufferedSynapse
extends Synapse

This class implements a synapse that permits to have asynchronous methods to write output patterns. The fwdPut method, infact, uses a FIFO structure to store the patterns and to separate the writing from the reading layers.

Method Detail

fwdGet

public Pattern fwdGet()

Return the first element of the FIFO structure, if exists.

Specified by:

fwdGet in interface InputPatternListener

Overrides:

fwdGet in class Synapse

Returns:

Pattern

fwdPut

public void fwdPut(Pattern pattern)

Writes the input pattern into the FIFO structure. The layer that calls this methos will wait only the time needed to put the input data into the pipeline.

Specified by:

fwdPut in interface OutputPatternListener

Overrides:

fwdPut in class Synapse

Parameters:

pattern - The Pattern object to write in the FIFO structure

revGet

public Pattern revGet()

Not used

Specified by:

revGet in interface OutputPatternListener

Overrides:

revGet in class Synapse

Returns:

Pattern

revPut

public void revPut(Pattern pattern)

Not used

Specified by:

revPut in interface InputPatternListener

Overrides:

revPut in class Synapse

Parameters:

pattern -
